Aurora Flight Sciences | Experienced C++ and Embedded Software Engineer | Boston (Cambridge) | Onsite | http://www.aurora.aero/

Aurora Flight Sciences is an established aerospace R&D company with a start-up feel and 80 engineers at our Boston R&D center. We invent and build advanced aircraft of all sizes, with particular focus on flight autonomy.

We build complete flight software stacks, from low level flight controls through high-level autonomy and sensor fusion algorithms.

We are looking for experienced software engineers to help us turn cutting edge ideas into prototypes at our Cambridge R&D office. Most of our early prototype work is in C++ and Python, while more mature and safety-critical projects use a mix of C++ and Simulink/Stateflow with an in-house toolchain. We use both ROS and DDS, and target both x86 and embedded ARM platforms running either a lightweight OS or bare metal on custom boards. Our fast prototype projects are run on GitLab, while safety-critical projects use heavy-weight auditable tools: DOORS, SVN, Trac, Collaborator, and Jenkins.

If you want your work to be in next generation of flying vehicles, if you are passionate about flight, and if you know how to design and implement clean, real-time and highly reliable/resilient software for embedded platforms, please send me an email at software_engineers@aurora.aero, or apply via the web site to one of our open positions.

How do these relationships get sustained? - What helps students stay in school? Overall, we have a nonprofit's mission and a tech startup's culture.

S&P Global | Full-Time | US - New York, Boston, Denver. India - Gurgaon

S&P Global is hiring functional programmers at various levels and locations in US and India. No Remote.

We are the Analytics Product Development Team, a relatively small group of developers focused on building next generation financial models and applications that leverage S&P's world-class data sets. Last year we launched a re-imagined Portfolio Analytics product that helps investment managers of all types measure the efficacy of their investment strategies and identify areas of risk in their equity portfolios. Put your FP skills to use as we move on to multiple asset classes, intraday analytics, and strategy modeling.

Functional Programming has a relatively long history here at S&P Global. We build our back-end data calculation engine using purely-functional Scala in 2008 and have been building new models and expanding it ever since. We created Ermine, a Haskell-like language featuring row types that can run on the JVM. Ermine drives our templating, reporting, and database access, adding type-safety to user-generated layouts. The new Portfolio Analytics is a single page web application that makes extensive use of PureScript. All of this co-exists in a diverse tech ecosystem that includes the JVM, .NET, and SQL Server.

We have a few open positions, so we are looking for developers with varying levels of experience. Ideal candidates have FP experience, but we'd still like to talk with you if you are just getting started with FP and are looking to grow. Please email resumes or questions to smcfarland@spglobal.com.

Gurgaon candidates, please email anupam_jain@spglobal.com and apply here -https://spgi.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/SPGI_Careers/job/Gurgaon-....

Engagements are usually 2-4 weeks long and in a year you will be exposed to 15-20 products and technology stacks. Your work will typically initiate person-months of security improvements in products millions of people use. You will have access to senior engineers/architects and your findings/ideas will be heard by senior decision makers. You will have enormous impact in making the software people use safer!

All of our consultants are also security researchers, with dedicated research time. Not too shabby!

We are looking to add new colleagues in all of our office locations, and are looking to add folks specifically in the Houston market should you have interest.
